Hello, no medicines ,pills helps to increase height after 18. Metaphysis of bone fuses with epiphyses to stop the growing of long bone in leg ,arms . Usually this occurs at the age of 16-17 years . Even harmone which help I growth and development start decreasing from there onwards .So its better to accept the fact and live with it . medication pills may harm you . Don't take any medicines without doctor's prescription
